Here I will look at some of the ingredients of vaccines.  What their purpose is.  Most importantly what potential adverse effects they might have on our health.

Also, please watch the video below to get an inside look at how Maurice Hilleman, who is described as "one of the greatest microbiologists/ vaccinologists of all time", views the vaccine industry he helped create over six decades.

"I think vaccines have to be considered the bargain-basement technology for the 20th century"
-Maurice Hilleman

What are the different types of ingredients in vaccines and what is their purpose?

Adjuvants are ingredients put in vaccines in order to create an immune response in the body.

Aborted Fetal Tissue Cells

The use of aborted fetal tissue cells in the manufacture and production of vaccines is not uncommon.  Vaccines currently in use that were developed using fetal cells include Hepatitis A, Rubella, Varicella, Zoster, Adenovirus and Rabies.

The use of fetal tissue in the production of vaccines comes with an obvious religious issue for some but even for those who are not religious there are serious moral issues as well.  Babies used are all 3 months or older gestation.

In an interview published on LifeSite News for the podcast, The John-Henry Westen Show, Pamela Acker who is an author and biologist states that  “They will actually deliver these babies via cesarean section. The babies are still alive when the researchers start extracting the tissue; to the point where their heart is still beating, and they’re generally not given any anesthetic, because that would disrupt the cells that the researchers are trying to extract.  So, they’re removing this tissue, all the while the baby is alive and in extreme amounts of pain. So, this makes it even more sadistic.”  

 

You'll often hear that the fetal cells used in vaccines come from two aborted babies from the 1960s, MRC-5 and WI-38.  It is said or is made to sound as if these are the only two babies that were used or are used in the productions of vaccines.  However, this is untrue.  There are several other cell lines that have been made as backups or for research purposes.

 

  • WI-38: Developed from the lung tissue of an aborted baby in 1962.  The WI stands for Winstar Institute where the cell line was created, and 38 is because it was developed from the 38th fetus they used.

  • MRC-5: Developed in 1965 from lung tissue of an aborted fetus

  • HEK-293: From a baby aborted in 1973.  HEK stands for Human Embryonic Kidney which means the cells came from the babies kidneys.  This cell line was produced from the 293rd experiment done by Frank Graham.

  • PER.C6:  Produced from human embryonic retinal cells from an 18 week fetus aborted in 1985

  • Walvax-2:  There were 9 aborted fetuses used to find the one with the best cell line to make vaccines from.  The cells came from a 3 month female who was delivered in China using the "waterbag method" used to deliver the fetus intact. 

  • MRC-9:  From the lungs of a female aborted in 1974 developed for research and as a back-up for vaccines.

  • IMR-90:  From the lungs of a female aborted in 1975 for research and related activities

In this clip from The Highwire you can hear Stanley Plotkin, The Godfather of Vaccines, discuss the use of aborted fetuses during a deposition by lawyer Aaron Siri.

The FDA states (a) The aluminum content of large volume parenteral (LVP) drug products used in total parenteral nutrition (TPN) therapy must not exceed 25 micrograms per liter ([micro]g/L). and must contain a warning label that reads, 

WARNING: This product contains aluminum that may be toxic. Aluminum may reach toxic levels with prolonged parenteral administration if kidney function is impaired. Premature neonates are particularly at risk because their kidneys are immature, and they require large amounts of calcium and phosphate solutions, which contain aluminum.

Research indicates that patients with impaired kidney function, including premature neonates, who receive parenteral levels of aluminum at greater than 4 to 5 [micro]g/kg/day accumulate aluminum at levels associated with central nervous system and bone toxicity. Tissue loading may occur at even lower rates of administration.

The math is calculated for us in 1,200 Studies

Examples of weight and corresponding maximum dose of aluminum per the FDA guidelines of 5 mcg per 2.2lb of body weight.  

  • 8lb baby =  18.16 mcg aluminum

  • 15lb baby = 34.05 mcg aluminum

  • 30lb toddler =  68.1 mcg aluminum

  • 50lb child =  113 mcg aluminum

  • 150lb adult = 340.5 mcg aluminum

  • 350lb adult =  794.5 mcg aluminum

Within hours of being born our babies are given a hepatitis B vaccine that contains 250mcg of aluminum.

At 2 months old they receive

another hepatitis B vaccine- 250mcg

Rotavirus (RV)- 0mcg

Diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis- 500mcg-1,500mcg!

Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib)- 0mcg-225mcg

Pneumococcal conjugate (PCV13)- 125mcg

Inactivated poliovirus (IPV <18 yrs)- 0mcg

OR combination vaccines such as

DTaP, hepatitis B, and inactivated poliovirus vaccine- 850mcg

DTaP, inactivated poliovirus, and Haemophilus influenzae type b vaccine- 1,500mcg

DTaP and inactivated poliovirus vaccine- 500mcg-1,500mcg

DTaP, inactivated poliovirus, Haemophilus influenzae type b, and hepatitis B vaccine- 319mcg

At a MINIMUM an 8lb baby is getting approx. 14x the FDA limit of Aluminum on the first day of life, and 24x the FDA limit at 2 months old. 

Depending on the combination a baby can receive up to 115x the FDA limit in one day.  This will be repeated at 4 months, and at 6 months.

Formaldehyde

The Center for Disease Control Describes Formaldehyde 

Formaldehyde (CH₂O) is a colorless, highly toxic, and flammable gas at room temperature. It is used in the production of fertilizer, paper, plywood, and some resins. It is also used as a food preservative and in household products, such as antiseptics, medicines, and cosmetics. Exposure to formaldehyde can irritate the skin, throat, lungs, and eyes. Repeated exposure to formaldehyde can possibly lead to cancer. Workers may be harmed by exposure to formaldehyde. The level of exposure depends upon the dose, duration, and work being done.

A search on PubMed for "Formaldehyde adverse health effects" returned 1,124 articles

Thimerosal

From the FDA website,
"Thimerosal, which is approximately 50% mercury by weight, has been one of the most widely used preservatives in vaccines. It is metabolized or degraded to ethylmercury and thiosalicylate. Ethylmercury is an organomercurial that should be distinguished from methylmercury, a related substance that has been the focus of considerable study. Methylmercury is the type of mercury found in certain kinds of fish. At high exposure levels methylmercury can be toxic to people. In the United States, federal guidelines keep as much methylmercury as possible out of the environment and food, but over a lifetime, everyone is exposed to some methylmercury."

The FDA states, 

 "Thimerosal has a long record of safe and effective use in preventing bacterial and fungal contamination of vaccines, with no ill effects established other than hypersensitivity and minor local reactions at the site of injection." and that,

"There is a robust body of peer-reviewed, scientific studies conducted in the United States and countries around the world that support the safety of thimerosal-containing vaccines. The scientific evidence collected over the past 15 years does not show any evidence of harm, including serious neurodevelopmental disorders, from use of thimerosal in vaccines."

However, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Chemical Assessment Summary shows that mercury does have developmental effects on children exposed in utero.

Thimerosal

Thimerosal

Watch Now

"State and federal hazardous waste regulations establish that any waste containing 0.2 milligrams per liter (mg/L) or more of mercury, as determined using the EPA-mandated Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP), requires management as hazardous waste"as opposed to a non-hazardous pharmaceutical waste.This document goes on to state that some vaccines labeled “preservative- or thimerosal-free", "may contain trace amounts (less than or equal to 1 microgram/0.5 mL dose) because thimerosal was used during the manufacturing process".  So a vaccicne labeled Preservative or thimerosal free may actually contain 1 microgram of thimerosal or 0.5 micrograms of Hg.

Recommended upper limit of mercury intake

"The FDA has proposed 0.4 µg per kg of body weight per day as the acceptable daily intake of methyl mercury, on the basis of the threshold at which paresthesia occurs in adults (11). However, the foetus and infants are particularly susceptible to mercury toxicity, and long-term studies in Iraq have shown language delays among infants exposed to mercury (12). On the basis of the findings of the Iraq studies, the Environmental Protection Agency lowered its reference dose for methyl mercury exposure to 0.1 µg per kg per day."

Indian Journal of Medical Ethics

February 15, 2017-
Robert F. Kennedy Jr announced $100,000 challenge in which Children's Health Defense would pay $100,000 to the first journalist, or other individual, who could find a peer-reviewed scientific study demonstrating that thimerosal is safe in the amounts contained in vaccines currently being administered to American children and pregnant women.  The challenge was open for submissions from February 15th, 2017 until August 15th, 2017.  During that six month period not one submission was made that could assure the safety of injecting thimerosal into pregnant women, infants and children.

Polysorbate 80

What is Polysorbate 80?

Why is Polysorbate 80 in Vaccines?

Polysorbate 80 is produced by the ethoxylation of a molecule called sorbitan. Sorbitan is the dehydrated form of sorbitol, a sugar alcohol that can naturally be found in some fruits. Ethoxylation is a chemical reaction in which ethylene oxide is added to a substrate, in this case, sorbitan. Sorbitan is reacted with 80 units of ethylene oxide, which is where the 80 in polysorbate 80 comes from. Polysorbate 80 exists as a thick, water-soluble yellow liquid.

Polysorbate 80 is also an emulsifier. As an emulsifier, polysorbate 80 is often used in formulations that contain both water and oil components. Mixing water and oil together creates a dispersion of oil droplets in water. However, the oil and water can separate if the product is left to settle. To address this problem, an emulsifier like polysorbate 80 can be added to help the droplets remain dispersed and so that the product remains mixed and doesn’t separate. Emulsifiers improve the consistency of a product, which enables an even distribution of the benefits of the key ingredients.

According to the Material Safety Data Sheet from Merck, Polysorbate 80 seems to have very little hazards.  Although, testing seems to be incomplete
"Reproductive toxicity No data available
Specific target organ toxicity - single exposure No data available
Specific target organ toxicity - repeated exposure No data available
Aspiration hazard No data available
11.2 Additional Information To the best of our knowledge, the chemical, physical, and toxicological properties have not been thoroughly investigated."

Polysorbate 80 is not only found in vaccines.  It serves a number of purposes and is found in many things.  It is used as a surfactant in cosmetics and as an emulsifier in foods.  It is also used to help drugs cross the blood brain barrier for the treatment of neurological disorders.  The blood-brain barrier serves a filter, controlling which molecules can pass from the blood into the brain. Because the endothelial cells are positioned so closely together, they keep out any harmful toxins or pathogens from reaching your brain.  In 1995 the first successful delivery of a drug across the blood brain barrier occurred using Polysorbate 80 to transport an anti-nociceptive peptide that cannot cross the BBB alone.  This could be beneficial if your goal is to target the brain for a specific treatment.  However, in the case of vaccines it can become problematic.  Vaccines contain ingredients that intentionally illicit an immune response.  Some of the ingredients are very toxic to the brain.  While Polysorbate 80 is added to vaccines as an emulsifier it also still has the ability to not only cross the blood brain barrier but to help other substances cross the blood brain barrier as well.
